Overall:
I agree that ALT1 is the preferable hook. Nice article, but there a couple of sourcing issues that need to be addressed: I have added one citation needed tag, and have tagged three unreliable sources (blogs and Tumblr) which should probably be removed. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:51, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Thanks, AirshipJungleman29! I'll have a look at the tags (as I'd guess will 842U) and try to help resolve any sourcing issues. I've also
struck out the first hook above for clarity, as ALT1 seems to be the preferred option. Cheers, Cl3phact0 (talk) 15:17, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: I've resolved 2 of the 3 unreliable sources and am wondering if we should somehow preserve the third, as it contains a photograph of Dieter Rams actually typing on his Valentine (or if not, whether it's possible to upload the image to Commons for posterity)? I'm also wondering if there's a better way to resolve the advertising spot references (most of which are on youtube) – perhaps a notelist that groups these together? -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 09:41, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
